Chinese patent (Patent No. 201380023370.0) discloses a new 2xxx aluminum-lithium alloy comprising 3.5-4.4wt.% Cu, 0.45-0.75wt.% Mg, 0.45-0.75wt.% Zn, 0.65-1.15wt. %Li, the alloy is an aluminum-lithium alloy with low zinc content, the Zn / Mg mass fraction ratio is between 0.60-1.67, and the alloy requires that the magnesium content is less than 1%, but the fracture toughness of the alloy is low
The Chinese patent (patent number 201810444457.X) discloses a high-strength toughness extruded aluminum-lithium alloy with high Zn content and its preparation method. The components in the alloy are: Zn 4.1-5.5%, Cu 2-4.5%, Mg 2-3%, Li 1-2%, Zr 0.1-0.5%, but the magnesium content in the alloy exceeds 2%, which will cause a large amount of T1 phase to precipitate at the grain boundary, reducing the strength of the grain boundary, thus making the alloy Decreased fracture toughness

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a deformed aluminum-lithium-copper-zinc alloy and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of metal material preparation. Background technique [0002] Adding 1wt% Li to the aluminum alloy can reduce the density of the alloy by 3%, while the modulus of elasticity can be increased by 6%, and it has a good solid solution strengthening effect. Therefore, Al-Li alloys have the advantages of low density, high specific strength and specific stiffness, excellent low temperature performance and corrosion resistance, and good superplasticity. Replacing conventional aluminum alloys with aluminum-lithium alloys can reduce the structural mass by 10% to 15%, and increase the rigidity by 15% to 20%. It is an ideal aerospace structural material. With the development of my country's aerospace industry, new aluminum alloys continue to develop, and the manufacturing methods of aluminum alloys have also been optimized and i...
